Probably not a DOTD, but this came up near me. Looks like quite a lot is missing…just for starters. Probably not the best candidate for a road going scooter either. Always liked the idea of fixing up a basket case Lambretta, but it would have to be a cheaper basket case.

Was that little glovebox in the back a special feature for LDs sent to the US market (if that was a thing)? Never seen that before; pretty cool

Spitball - I think the glove box was standard for a few years? 56-58ish but I am not a Lambretta expert at all…especially the LD era stuff.

Agree with 56-58 ish. From memory, I think the mk3 lds had the glovebox there, as a precursor to the electric start la. As the batteries ended up in the same place. Just with a hump covering the tops of the 2 6v batteries.

That's a heck of a deal right ther, if only for the solid looking paint and body.

Probably has more go fast parts than just the semi-hydraulic brake and shocks, but who knows what shape it's all in.

Sold for $2300.

BAT is confusing.
A '74 Rally 200 sold for $5k two years ago (deal of the year) in even better condition.

A bodge is already at $2k with 5 days left, and bodges with sidecars go for WAY more.
Like bidders aren't familiar with this group

I may be interested in this. The bonus is the Stella motor for a P frame I have sitting here. Plus I have dealt with him previously.

Thoughts? Plus 1958 is my birth year.

That scoot isn't worth anywhere near $3,500. Not to mention, anyway.

Half off a Stella motor isn't a bad deal, but nowhere near enough to make up for the gouging on the scoot.
